LionSteel M4: all-round knife for bushcraft and outdoor enthusiasts
The LionSteel M4 is an all-round fixed knife, designed for outdoor enthusiasts. This knife is large enough for comfortable use and compact and light enough to take with you on hikes. Its style is a mix between modern and classic. This knife is perfectly balanced.
Features of LionSteel M4 knives
Use this practical hunting knife for food prep, skinning game or when creating feather sticks. Fixed knives are sturdier than a pocket knife, because a fixed blade does not have any mechanisms that could cause it to suddenly snap shut or break.
LionSteel M4: blade
The blade of the M4 is made from Böhler M390 steel. This is an Austrian type of stainless steel known to retain its sharpness well. The Böhler M390 steel is a bit challenging to sharpen, but with the right tools and technique it won't be a problem. The spine of the blade is nicely rounded. On the spine of the blade, around the transition of the handle, you find a small protrusion. So small you hardly notice it, but large enough to offer your thumb more grip. The entire spine has a lovely finish, something we often see on Italian knives.
CPM MagnaCut steel
Knivesandtools has special 'Exclusive' versions of existing LionSteel knives. These Knivesandtools Exclusives feature CPM MagnaCut blades. MagnaCut is a premium steel type. It's known for its incredible toughness and corrosion resistance. It's like you take the toughness of CPM-4V steel and combine it with the corrosion-resistant properties of CPM-20CV. This steel retains its sharpness exceptionally well, but it might be a bit challenging to sharpen.
MagnaCut steel is one of the best all-round steel types on the market today. Its fine microstructure ensures sharpening is more manageable than with comparable steel types. This is why MagnaCut steel is an excellent choice for small pocket knives, large outdoor knives, kitchen knives and everything in between!
LionSteel M4: handle
The Lionsteel M4 is available in different handle materials like walnut wood, olive wood, santos rosewood, micarta or G10. The handle is beautifully decorated and has subtle grip grooves. These give the knife a graceful and elegant look and feel.
Belt sheath
The LionSteel M4 comes with a right-handed leather belt sheath. The maximum belt width for this sheath is 8.0 cm. The sheath is made from thick leather. Not only does this look great, it also ensures that the sheath is sturdy. Your knife will be safe from damage when stored in this sheath.
